Adam,
Do you think you could explain the ramifications of using the directive
versus those of the action? I'm having a diificult time understanding what
is really going because of the way I thought it worked.
Let me give a little background on the problem. I have a util.jsp page which
is to be included in all the pages on the site to provide common functions
and also to load some config data in to the application object if it hasn't
been already. So, basically I have some function and vars in the <%! declare
blocks but I also have a <% code block that checks for the config data in
the application object and loads it if needed. It then pulls the data from
the session and drops it into a hash table which I make available via the
aforementioned declare block... If I do the directive include it works but
changes I make to the database are not reflected until the page containing
the included file or the included file is re-saved. And if I try the action,
I am throwing an exception because the hashtable which is declared in the
util.jsp include is not available to the page it was included to. It seems
it processes until the include, switches over to the included file to run
seprately (ie. vars declared here don't seem to propogate up to the
including page), and then return to processing... Though I don't feel very
confident in my guess. I'm I crazy?
Should I be breaking my includes up with var. declares and function declares
and if so, should the var declares be directive-ly included or with the
action?
Argh. I am missing something aren't I?!?
Thanks for your time and help!
